Furious Fauria

| | Comments (0) |

Redshirt sophomore Joseph Fauria is having a bit of trouble adjusting to life as a transfer.
This is one competitive dude, as evidenced by his reaction after a dropped pass during scout team offense. He fell to his knees and punched the ground in frustration.
He is just as frustrated knowing that he will sit out the season.
"It's definitely a big mental challenge on someone like me, who's really passionate about the game, really wants to help the team," Fauria said. "Of course I want to be out there with the ones, helping this offense. I'm just doing the best I can."
He knows the feeling, having planned on redshirting last season before playing in three games.
"In the beginning last year, I redshirted, but it got blown halway through the season," Fauria said. "Things were looking up there, I was supposed to play a lot this year, but things happened, I came here, and another redshirt. It's going to be tough again. I know how the ropes work, and I'll be better from it.
